Contact: Micheál Mac Giolla Coda
Based in Tipperary
GBBG supplies several hundred native queens per year but these must be ordered and paid for in advance. The order book is often full for the current season by February so book early to avoid disappointment.
GBBG hosts an open day every year where the queen rearing process is demonstrated.
Redmond Williams is considered to be the leading bee instrumental insemination expert in Ireland

You say contact M. MacGiollacoda but give no address, no e-mail nor telephone number of either himself or his daughter Aoife. This level of information is of little or no use without actual contact details to allow contact

Hi,
I m from The Netherlands and try to breed AMM as well. I m interested in Inst Insemination, but there are no II courses here. Do you guys plan to give such a course in 2015 and how to enroll? Thanks
Hi Hans. There are no formal courses on II offered but there are a couple of Amm breeders in Ireland using the technique.

I would be looking for 2 nucs of mated queens of native stock. I would be looking for docile bees of good temperament and good queen layers who produce workers that are good foragers and produce honey in large quantities.
Do ye have same that I could purchase?
Hi John. NIHBS itself does not supply nucs. You would need to contact some of its members. We hope to get an up to date list of suppliers on the website in the near future.
